Building A Strong Community From The Ground Up

The maintenance and development of the Líl̓wat Nation’s infrastructure are responsibilities shared by the Public Works and Capital Projects departments. The two departments work closely together to create a healthy community with public infrastructure and housing that meets national standards for safety and quality.

Public Works ensures the smooth operation of:

• Water and wastewater facilities
• Safe solid waste disposal

• Fire and flood protection

Capital Project, working cooperative with Public Works, manages all major capital projects such as the construction of new housing and playing fields. The department manages CMHC housing construction and is in the process of delivering several projects with own source revenues.
